Topanga and Calabasas Peak-area residents will be able to access their neighborhoods at the following interactions

• Mulholland Highway and Old Topanga Canyon Road
• Civic Center Way and Malibu Canyon Road
• Mulholland Drive and Topanga Canyon Road

Only residents will be allowed back into the evacuated zones, deputies said.

To reenter evacuated zones, residents must show proof of residency, which can include a government-issued ID or a recent utility bill, mortgage document or property deed. Deputies urged residents to have both their ID and one of those documents to facilitate a smooth reentry process.

"For your safety, please drive carefully. Emergency crews are still working in the area. Stay alert, follow all traffic regulations, and proceed with caution," deputies wrote.

All other road closures and evacuated areas for the Palisades Fire remain in effect, deputies said.

On Thursday, Sheriff Robert Luna said the majority of evacuated residents should expect to be allowed to return home no earlier than next week.

Some homes in the areas being repopulated may not have power, as the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power is awaiting approval from fire authorities before re-energizing lines in the fire zone, the LAFD said.
